I'm looking to order a new chain for my Stihl 032 A chainsaw. I use it mainly for felling and bucking. How do I measure the bar to determine the length of chain I need? Also, what is the best type for felling and bucking? I'm looking at spending about $25.
look for a number of (like 72 for a 20" bar) (drive links) stamped on the bar here is a chain for my 25" bar. 84 links
Depending on what you end up needing I may have it. Let us know what you need for Drive Links, pitch, and gauge!!
Oregon 20 66.Stihl RM 23 66. Bar translation is: 16".325 pitch and .050 kerf (width of groove").Stihl website has a "how to" which explains it all. That is not the OP's sizes,just the ones which ir the other posters pictures.
